on the other side of life

This is a story between three generations.
Aita mother and daughter, Naiat father and son, Lot mother and daughter.
Every family has a different life, but the gap between the two generations in every family is the same.
Aita's mother worked as a prostitute without her daughter's knowledge, and Aita joined activism without her mother's knowledge. Naiyat and his father were often unable to talk and communicate. The father felt that he was too reserved, and he felt that the father was too "gentleman". Lot deeply thought that her mother was very "German" and could not understand her thoughts, but her mother felt that her daughter was acting recklessly and was very disobedient.
It's like our life. We never understand why our parents always have so many rules, and parents are very puzzled by our whims.
Possibly, because we are all on one side of life and never try to understand each other on the other side.
At the end of the film, Nayat sits by the sea, waiting. waiting for father? Waiting to understand? Waiting for the other side of life?
